TANTALIZING LOVE
Indulge in the tantalizing world of Forbidden Love. Love that defies expectations. Love that breaks boundaries. Love that burns bright, even in the shadows. Love that endures impossible odds. Our February StorySLAM explores the fascinating world of FORBIDDEN LOVE.
"Lovers and madmen have no reason." - Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

A SIMPLIFIED GUIDE FOR DESIGNING YOUR STORY
- Define a character (probably yourself;-) How were you feeling at that moment? Confident, lonely, conflicted, anxious, stressed, in lust or love?
- Where are you? Home, work, sunset, on the street, hotel, hiking in the mountains?
- What’s at stake? Career, security, peace of mind, redemption, future happiness?
- What was the crisis or conflict that triggered that moment for you?
- How did it work out? Did it make you happy, joyful, and peaceful or are you sad, resentful, and filled with remorse? Bring us full circle and share your beautiful truth as you are now.
